Call out for worn white socks
Calling all white sock wearers! We are collecting used socks for a new interactive artwork entitled ‘The Sock Project’ by the artist Samuel Lyon Spice.
The Sock Project will explore the role and history of white socks within the LGBTQ+ community. From fetish to functional, what is it about white socks that make them so desired and worshiped?
All donated socks will be used in the creation of a new artwork to be presented at the Knotty Festival in June 2020
For each pair of worn white socks donated the artist will send a limited edition photograph.
Sock Donors can choose from the following options:
Savoury Edition (Free):
A photograph of the artist posing in your socks in a position of their choosing.
Sock Lover Bonus Edition (£25.00):
For the extra special sock lovers out there for only £25 you will receive a photograph of the artist posing in your socks in any position that you choose!
